After my report of there being a hitch in the Cordoba deal, I can confirm it has bluntly hit a brick wall. Looks ever more doubtful by the day that there will be another approach.
Patrick Vieira has signed, like I and apparently Sky Sports News said.
No interest shown in Shawcross whatsoever, nor most on this section. If you go to the player's title if they've been made in this thread, then you will see if I have rubbished it or not. The first one to be proved to nbe bollocks has been Veron today, something which I revealed last week.
Last week I commented on our interest in Victor Moses, I can reveal we have spoken to Crystal Palace and it's a case of where we will start the bidding at. The vibe the club have been getting is that a move would possibly interest Moses depsite us not guarenteeing him first team footie at this present stage.
And a new one brought to my table is that Sergio Aguero is really favoured by RM but questions remain whether he will be able to firmly open the wallet until the summer, when hopefully he will have proved himself. If Chelsea or others get involved, the feeling is the club will possibly then start engaging in bidding for SA. But not till then.
But if SA is still a Athletico player by summer and RM is still the man at the helm, watch this space..
